So, I recently volunteered and went to Alaska to help out with some disaster relief stuff in an ultra-tiny village on the western coast of AK with Team Rubicon. TR is a disaster-relief org that's made up almost entirely of vets and fire/ems guys. Unfortunately, after we got to Alaska and had everything ready to go, the mission got scrubbed last minute because of crazy Alaskan weather, but everyone I met there was pretty awesome. They're currently deployed to the Phillipines, and a bunch of other CONUS places. I realize this sounds cheesy, but it's a great way to meet some cool people, and help out and have a goddamn amazing time.

Fixed the link, I don't know what that other site is. e: Also, I know, "hurr hurr volunteer firefighting", but if you're looking for something to do that's somewhat fulfilling, give being a vollie firefighter/emt a try. Just like the military, there's a lot of idiots and ultra-moto guys that have no reason to be, but there's also a lot of chill dudes that are good at their job. It'll get you out of the house, in shape if you're not a shitlord, and you get to do some cool poo poo that helps people at the end of the day. invision fucked around with this message at 20:24 on Nov 27, 2013 |
